Creating a data storage pool

Assuming that you have created a disk group, mydg, that contains several disks that you have initialized for use with VxVM, the following command creates a data storage pool, mypool, containing several disks, which supports the creation of striped-mirror volumes:

# vxpool -g mydg create mypool \

  dm=mydg01,mydg02,mydg03,mydg04,mydg04,mydg06 \

  pooldefinition=stripe_mirror_volumes
